Wenshan, China

I'll keep this short. I've just written a lengthy, lyrical piece about my feelings of isolation when technology lets me down. I saved it as I went along, in case of further technological problems, so when I was thrown off the site I wasn't worried - until I found out my document hadn't actually been properly saved and couldn't, it seemed, be opened. Aaaaagh!!! Technology has been my saviour here but my dependance on it is, I now know, too great and I've noticed how much I need it to contact my family back in England (and Wales and Scotland, of course). Suffice it to say, I had a crisis moment, my first, and it was a lesson to me. I'll close now, send this and maybe write about the many positives later.
